Galloshes? Totes still make some mid high ones. Maybe a surplus store.

Thanks BT, I wanted the hat for its 'rural' look, but it has that adventure style going for it also.BellyTank said:The hat is made from khaki cotton twill, lined/structured with cork of about 1/16". I have since removed the cork from the crown.

how would they get in the way?Creeping Past said:With the buckles on the inside, you'd find they'd rub, tangle or otherwise get in your way...

It just may be a very versatile hat.
"MOSES" STOOD BY THE AUTHOR THROUGH THICK AND THIN
Though fat and forty when the hazardous journey began, the Chinese houseboy, a heritage from Mr. Lattimore's father, refused to be left behind. He lost most of his surplus flesh in one agonizing tramp of 30 miles under the hot sun of the Mongolian border. By using what he styled "hard words" to a hostile tax collector, he smuggled the entire caravan past a jealously guarded station, and on another occasion he "talked" his employer out of jail.

This iconoclastic post calls into question the very idea of appropriate adventure clothing.
I think 'Moses' has the right idea: just get on with it!

If i ever decide to go on safari i suppose it will work. Otherwise there are too many connotations for it otherwise, unfortunately.

I think its probably from the 70s. it was after all, an ebay item. It says it was made in Austra by a company called Foxrun
